It's All About the Harvest....Burger!

This burger was created to symbolize the harvest. The harvest can be interpreted to mean the wine harvest or fall harvest. The recipe tries to capture the richness of nature's finest ingredients that come from the bountiful harvest!

Grilling Instructions 15 minutes prior to grilling turn the grill on medium and preheat the grill for barbecuing. Brush the grates with vegetable oil. Before the burgers are placed on the grill prepare the apple slices. Dip apple slices in bbq sauce and grill evenly on both sides. The apples should be firm to the bite. Remove from grill and put aside. Take the hamburger patties on preheated grill and turn heat up to high. When the bottoms of the burgers are charbroiled, turn over and baste with bbq sauce. Flip the burger 1 more time on each side and brush with more bbq sauce. Slightly before the burgers are done, place 2 smoked cheddar slices on top and melt the cheese. Meanwhile, place the cut side of the sliced rolls on the top grates (farthest away from the heat) and toast them slightly. Burger Assembly Place grilled burger with cheese on top of bottom of roll. Next place the apple slices on top of each burger and spoon a generous amount of caramelized onions on each burger. Finally put a little extra bbq sauce on top of the burger and cover with the roll.

Comments

This burger has evolved over 3 months of testing on friends and family. This is the final version and hopefully it embodies the essence of Napa Valley and Sutter Home. Pick a good bottle of wine to enjoy along with the burger.
